/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

So R2D2 is La Forge? He seems to get everything fixed just in time.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 13 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

Absolutely. He can even interface with ship computers like R2.

That visor is some under-appreciated technology.

Star wars tech gives me a lot of anxiety. Sort of reminds me of going out on a boat with my friend who buys used boats and then does all of his repair work. You could be stuck out in space and rely on nothing unfixable with a toolbox going wrong. That on top of new information that suggests that ships traveling in hyperspace and popping out into a planet could destroy whole cities makes those junk heaps flying around even more dangerous.

If the enterprise goes Kaput, at least you have replicators and an AI that can pretty much fix itself. If the computers go down they are dead in the water though. No amount of shifting around pieces of colored plexiglass will fix anything without the AI holding your hand.

Is Data an astromech droid or a protocol droid or a pleasure unit?
